,
we have welders
ignore the state of things like horns ,there being done as you read this
i just hope i dont bang my head and loose my memory ,ive got boxes and boxes of bits lol
ready to start grinding now ,.and remember kids , ALWAYS USE PROTECTION ,,,, on your eyes
i know , not a lot of change .exept the bloody welder has been got out the corner and yesterday it got done ,ive been told it will be done ,every day for the last 2 months ,so you can imagine how happy i am now ,the engine bay was painted by yours truely ,but looking at it yesterday ,and the fact the welder didnt sheet the sides up .its got burns in the paint now ,so im going to rub it down and paint it again, red i think lol ,ive also started stripping the engine bay ,things like the horns are going to be cleaned up and painted black ,and everything else i feel confident enough to remove ,(the fuel regulator ,throttle body ect ,the stripping begins , im happy with the position of the wings ,although after replacing the a,post on the n/s ,the wing is not 100 flush with the door ,but it was about 3 mm out before ,now its 1, ,but better than i thought ,so the prepping will continue ,its going to be done and ready for me to bring home ,and start fitting the new bits on , i also spent the afternoon with the autosol out .i will put the pics up later , 
thanks for all your comments on my threads,its appreciated ,

Jesus!
I thought I had a lot of car around my house
I like the layout of all the new stuff. How much you spent at Ford on it? I reckon I am into about Ł700 on new bits from Ford alone, everything from a Bonnet to a bolt .
What did you spray your cam cover with? I am toying with the idea of buying a metal one then getting it powder coated but I am going WAY over budget on the bodywork and new bufty bits, when I still have an engine to pay for. Spray cans are cheap lol.
Looks good though mate, now I know why you are the Deerhunter
Keep up the good work
